Oakland Raiders punter Marquette King is one of several NFL players facing a fine for participating in an arm wrestling event at the MGM Grand Las Vegas, though he appears to be keeping a sense of humor about the situation.
The father of a young punter received this response from King on Twitter after asking him for some advice:
@MarquetteKing My son loves watching you Punt and he just started punting last year.. Any advice you can give him? #StayBlessed
